Sorry if I misunderstood your intent, but as worded, it seemed that you were trying to downplay the virulence of the COVID virus. In reply to "how do you avoid an entire population of infectious persons?" I said "You can't give it to your neighbour if either of you are indoors. It's not that infectious." Open window, gust of wind, now the entire neighborhood has it. ID: 104002 ·

Well I know several people who would mandate that punishment for getting an apostrophe wrong! ID: 104061 ·

Well I know several people who would mandate that punishment for getting an apostrophe wrong! Isn't there medication for that? Yes. It's called a 4x2 delivered to the back of the skull. ID: 104123 ·

A sign outside a block of flats, “Residents’ refuse to be placed in bins." or getting away from the apostrophe, see how punctuation completely changes the meaning of this string of words. “A woman, without her man, is nothing,” “A woman: without her, man is nothing.” ID: 104128 ·

Well I know several people who would mandate that punishment for getting an apostrophe wrong! Isn't there medication for that? Yes. It's called a 4x2 delivered to the back of the skull. Is that a 2x4 held sideways for a higher force per surface area? The only instructions seen, say "Try to always use a flat surface, otherwise it could get messy." ID: 104134 ·
